Coin App Anwers Indie Call

Edge writes: "The founding members of a new Phoenix, Ariz.-based studio are three of the latest developers to answer the call of the indie games scene, leaving their larger employer behind to make their own destinies.

Game designer Panya Inversin, lead technology programmer and artist Pat Bergschneider and Dan Pratt, lead artist and graphic designer announced Monday the formation of Coin App, which is currently working on a downloadable game for consoles called Max Blastronaut.

"We mainly left our previous positions because we wanted to be responsible for our own careers," Inversin told Edge. 'Too many factors that affected our futures were out of our control.'"
